Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate lubrication during machining, leading to tool wear and poor surface finish.Employ appropriate cutting fluids and coolants during all machining operations to maintain tool sharpness and achieve a smooth finish.
Improperly aligning fabricated components, causing premature wear and operational failure.Perform thorough alignment checks during installation and verify that the component moves freely without binding.

Common Applications

  • Self-lubricating bushings
  • Wear pads and strips
  • Journal bearings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to highly acidic or alkaline environments, which can accelerate corrosion.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during machining operations to mitigate airborne particulate exposure.
